Hulu picks up Amy Poehler-produced comedy from Billy Eichner and Julie Klausner
Fans of excitable comedians rejoice, for Hulu has picked up Billy Eichner and Julie Klausner’s Amy Poehler-produced half-hour comedy Difficult People direct to series. Yes, that is a lot of names at once. Yes, all involved are thrilled to be working together— as Poehler says in a statement, “I tend to enjoy funny people creating and starring in comedy programs, and Julie and Billy are the funniest around.” Thrilled enough to run through the streets of New York City yelling at people about Meryl Streep? Maybe.
